currently have 2x talk talk fibre connections at home (1 business 1 home) both 80 meg/second

is there any options out there for a cheap load balancing switch I can plug both routers into ?

ideally something with gigabit and 8 ports to save me daisychaining another switch

If you're expecting to be able to plug those two 80Mbps connections into something and end-up with an 160Mbps connection you're onto a hiding to nothing, especially if it isn't a multi-user scenario.

What are you trying to achieve, and what are you expecting the end result to be?

Ideally a bit or hardware that will split demand between the 2 separate lines I don't expect 160 meg but it would be nice to be able to utilise both connections better without having to have 2 separate networks
